Do you have your fingerprints taken while leaving the US?

Not typically, no. They're taken for immigration into the US, but usually a passport is all that's needed. No, you will not automatically be fingerprinted. However, customs has the power to force you too. This should only happen if they are suspicious of you though.

Do homeless people get counted in the census?

Yes, though it is a very difficult problem to get an accurate count for obvious reasons.

Note that the U.S. census counts everyone in the area - permanent residents, temporary residents (though, they are asked to provide where their permanent residence is), illegal immigrants, homeless, etc.

It is CRITICALLY IMPORTANT that everyone answers the census. It's the ONLY way we can apportion representation and funding, so YOU HAVE TO BE COUNTED. Also, note that the Census does not(by law) share personal data with ANY other government agency. That is, any personal data will only be aggregated with others in large anonymous blocks to provide statistical pools. So, by answering the Census, you will NEVER have any of your unique personal data given to the IRS, FBI, INS, or other agency.

How much would The Six Million Dollar Man be worth in today's economy?

The answer depends on your own country's economic circumstances, but here in Australia the "cost of living" has increased by about 520% between 1974 (when the TV series began) and 2006. This is based on change in the Consumer Price Index, released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

So $AUD6m in 1974 would have the same purchasing power as $AUD37.2m in 2006.

I guess you could say Steve Austin would be The Forty Million Dollar Man in today's economy.

Good stuff! According to the Inflation Calculator at inflationdata.com, inflation in the United States has increased by 346.24% between January 1974 and May 2007 (latest available at the time of writing). That would make the $6,000,000 man of 1974 the $26,774,400 dollar man today in the USofA.
